Education System of Viet Nam in the Past
Because of 1,000 years under the control of China, there were no records which indicated a formal education system in Viet Nam. In 939, Emperor Ngo Quyen expelled the Chinese invaders and declared Vietnamese independence. But the first two dynasties Ngo and Dinh did not last so long, and were busy with the national defense, so the education was just in pagodas. Ly Cong Uan, the founder king of the dynasty had been educated in a pagoda.
To the Ly dynasty, the fundamental education system was officially improved. King Ly Thanh Ton established the Temple of Literature at the ancient Capital of Thang Long to encourage people to appreciate the education. In 1075, the first exam was done by the order of King Ly Nhan Ton to select scholars for the office and the later year, 1076, the Imperial Academy, the first university in Viet Nam’s history, was set up for the education of sons of royalty and other high-ranking officials.
There were also many private classes taught by prominent scholars such as Chu Van An, Le Quy Don, Nguyen Binh Khiem, Phung Khac Khoan, Vo Truong Toan… The students would only study literature and ancient history of China, of Viet Nam for entirety of their schooling. Later on, the Public Administration curriculum was finally added to the programme. When the Ho Royal family ruled the country, students were taught simple mathematics.
From 1918 to 1945, Viet Nam’s education programme adopted the western education system with three levels: elementary, high school, and college. At all levels, from 1945 the Vietnamese national language is officially used. Students have the opportunity to learn literature, history, philosophy, law, science, math, medicine and other languages.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
There is one planet that still fascinates and teases scientists mainly because it doesn’t have an atmosphere to obscure observation, yet it is not big enough for sufficiently accurate telescopic observation. The fact that it is also very close to the sun also makes it difficult for astronomers.
However, space telescopes have told us a lot more about Mercury. It is rather similar to Earth’s moon and to Mars. There are mountainous areas dotted with craters and large valleys which are uncratered. The moon’s valleys have fewer cracks and ridges are smoother. Mercury’s valleys are filled with volcanic rocks, similar to on the moon, yet there is no evidence of volcanoes, even extinct ones, on Mercury, as there is on the both Mars and the moon, and of course here on Earth.
So, scientists presume the valleys on Mercury were caused by different things, that is to say not by volcanoes, but by very large meteorites, which also caused the cracks in the terrain and left the ridges rough and uneven. More and better photos of Mercury are at present at best only hypotheses.
Question28. What is the main topic of this passage?
A. Astronomers’ difficulties. C. The Earth’s moon.
B. Observation of planets. D. The planet, Mercury

B. Because it is too close to the sun.
C. Because it is difficult for space probes to get close to.
D. Because it is too small.
Question30. What is true about Mercury but not true about the moon or Mars?
A. The valleys are filled with volcanic rocks. C. There are no volcanoes.
B. The valleys are uncratered. D. They are hilly regions.
Question31. What does the author imply space telescopes can do better than land-based telescopes?
A. Show more of the planet, Mercury. C. Show what caused Mercury’s valleys.
B. Show the meteorites which hit Mercury. D. Show the volcanoes on Mercury.
Question32. What can we infer from the passage that astronomers still need to get more detailed observation of Mercury?
A. More hypotheses C. Larger space telescopes.
B. Better and more space telescopes. D. More ways to prove hypotheses.
